《 Ocean Life》—— John Li (2017)

This is a breathtaking piece of jewellery that encapsulates the enchanting beauty of the ocean life: a mesmerising opal, the centerpiece of this masterpiece, symbolising the vast and mysterious depths of the sea. Set in an intricate arrangement of radiant 18k yellow gold and white gold, the opal mirrors the ever-changing hues of the ocean, from the deepest blues to the most ethereal greens.

Surrounding this precious opal are diamonds and pearls that are set in 18k white gold to create the ocean’s wave, and intricately crafted dolphins, gracefully captured in 18k rose gold. Their forms seem to dance around the opal, embodying the playful spirit of these intelligent creatures as they gracefully navigate the ocean waves. Each dolphin is meticulously detailed, capturing the elegance and fluidity of their movements.

Adding a touch of vibrant life to this aquatic scene, delicate coral formations adorn the edges of the piece. These coral accents not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also serve as a protective embrace, symbolising the delicate balance and interconnectedness of the ocean ecosystem.

As light plays upon the opal's surface, it radiates a captivating display of colors, reminiscent of sunlight filtering through the water's surface. This exquisite piece is not merely jewellery; it's a wearable work of art that celebrates the wonders of the ocean, inviting the wearer to carry a piece of the sea's magic wherever they go.

《 海洋生命 》—— 李加林 (2017)

這是一件令人驚嘆的珠寶，完美地凝聚了海洋生命的迷人之美：一顆迷人的蛋白石，是這件杰作的中心，象徵著海洋浩深神秘的深處。蛋白石鑲嵌在精緻的18K黃金和白金的搭配中，反映了海洋不斷變換的色彩，從最深沉的藍色到最飄渺的綠色。

環繞著這顆珍貴的蛋白石是鑲嵌在18K白金中的鑽石和珍珠，它們共同打造出海洋的波濤，以及精心製作的海豚，優雅地捕捉在18K玫瑰金中。它們的形態似乎在蛋白石周圍起舞，體現了這些聰明生物優雅地穿越海浪的嬉戲精神。每只海豚都經過精心雕琢，捕捉到它們動作的優雅和流暢。

為這個水下場景增添生機的是纖巧的珊瑚造型，點綴在作品的邊緣。這些珊瑚的裝飾不僅增強了美感，還象徵著海洋生態系統微妙平衡和相互聯繫的保護擁抱。

當光線撫摸著蛋白石的表面時，它散發著引人入勝的色彩，彷彿陽光透過水面過濾的景象。這件精緻的作品不僅僅是珠寶；它是一件可穿戴的藝術品，慶祝著海洋的奇蹟，邀請佩戴者隨身攜帶海洋的魔力。
